Magazine – Spreading Light
BA Design Warm-Up – Foundation Course
2022
semester
Spreading Light is a periodic magazine that focuses on well-known object related to the light, like Chinese lanterns, fireworks and even wax candles, and tries to propose a new way of seeing the world, rediscovering it bit by bit starting by those simple object that we give for granted, conveying the underlying message that even if we think we know it, we probably don’t.
For this reason each issue begins with a brief historical introduction, explaining why the object was important and how/on which occasion it was used. Afterwards, the object is divided into categories, because different colours and different shapes have different meanings. Finally we see how today this object is used and where it can be found, and the magazine will propose a traditional shop or workshop about the issue.
